SUBDIVISION REVIEW
The applicant is creating 12 lots and one outlot from 8.96 acres. The plat will dedicate the right-of-
way for portions of Lake Lucy Road,Yosemite Avenue, and Anthem Place. Outlot A contains
wetlands and storm water ponds and will be dedicated to the city and preserved as permanent open
space.
RIGHT-OF-WAY AND EASEMENTS
The survey included all easements and right of way shown on the title search of the property
dated November 20, 2015 from Stewart Title Guarantee Company. The applicant shall have
their survey confirm this with a recent title survey before recording final plat.
The applicant proposes a 60-foot right-of-way over Anthem Place and 60-foot right-of-way
radius over the cul-de-sac bubble. The plat maintains the existing, 66-foot right-of-way
easements for Lake Lucy Road and Yosemite Avenue. The City Council approved a variance on
the right-of-way for the cul-de-sac bubble to be decreased to 50 feet at Lot 11, Block 1. Staff
recommends the applicant revise the plans to incorporate this variance and increase the size of
the stormwater basin on the east side of Lot 12.
The retaining wall on Lots 5 and 6 proposed within the drainage and utility easement requires an
encroachment agreement.
An entry monument is shown on Lot 1. This shall require a paper easement between Lot 1 and
the HOA that shall be recorded prior to construction of the entry monument.
The site plan shows an entry monument on Lot 1. This shall require an encroachment agreement
between Lot 1 and the development's HOA to be recorded prior to construction of the entry
monument.
Per §18-78, staff and the applicant examined providing future access for adjacent properties to
the west, 1650 and 1670 Lake Lucy Road. However, it is uncertain how these properties would
develop in the future and what type of legal encumbrance Lot 5 would require. Staff
recommends 1650 and 1670 have access off of Lake Lucy Road when they develop in the future.
GRADING
Drainage
Under existing conditions, the site is divided into two major drainage area. A line that extends
approximately from the southeast property corner to 150 feet south of the northwest corner
divides the drainage areas. Everything north and east of that divide drains to one of two
wetlands and is ultimately directed to the east through a new culvert to be installed under
Yosemite.

Southern Drainage Area
Everything south and west of this divide drains to the south towards Lake Lucy. The drainage
leaves the site via a culvert that goes under Lake Lucy Road and discharges onto private property
to the south. The drainage then either goes through a twelve inch(12") corrugated metal pipe
culvert under the private driveway which leads to the island on Lake Lucy or portion of the
drainage travels past the culvert and follows an incised ditch along the drive to a wetland located
on private property.
A second twelve-inch(12") CMP culvert s;
goes under the same drive at this location
and appears to equilibrate the wetland
with another wetland on the other side of
the drive. It appears the drive at this • o .

additional runoff to the south. Staff agrees that the lack of easement and infrastructure makes it
untenable to send any additional runoff to the south. These property owners should not bear
responsibility for the stormwater management of the subject property.
The development of this site must not direct any additional volume of runoff to the south.
Further,rates must not be increased over existing rates for any scenario. The applicant must
demonstrate to staff's satisfaction that this condition is met. The current plan iteration reduces
the drainage area to the south by 1.07 acres. It is the consulting engineer's contention that the
existing site conditions warrant a composite curve number(CN)of 79 and that even though the
site CN increases to 85under developed conditions the total volume of decreases under each
design event as shown in table 1 below.

There have been numerous studies showing that, after mass grading, a site will be more
compacted than under current conditions. Mass graded sites intentionally compact soils to
increase strength for paved areas and building pads. This increase in compaction leads to an
increase in bulk density and a decrease in soil porosity. This translates into an increase in the
volume of water running off the site. The submittal assumed that bulk densities would remain
the same after completion of mass grading as they are under the current conditions. Without a
soil management plan indicating how bulk density will be reduced after completion of grading,
staff feels this assumption to be erroneous and the composite curve number post development
will be significantly higher than under existing conditions. The applicant must provide a soil
management plan indicating site-specific remediation of soil compaction and practices to
improve tilth, soil organic content, and infiltration rates.
The applicant must demonstrate that bulk densities are no greater than existing conditions by
providing penetrometer data for current conditions and post development and comparing them to
some reference such as the NRCS Soil Quality Institute's 1999 findings. If the bulk densities are
found to be elevated post-development the developer would be responsible for correcting the
soils.
Cul-de-sac Drainage
A low spot exists at the 3 o'clock position on the proposed cul-de-sac. It is staffs preference
that this low spot be removed and that positive drainage take place toward the east. The
applicant's engineer feels this is not practicable and instead proposed to install a sump manhole
at this location to discharge water to the wetland buffer.
Drainage of Lots 6-10
In an effort to force look outs onto these lots, several issues are created, including drainage
issues. Both lot 7 and lot 8 have drainage shed directly at the structures. This is an unacceptable
condition. Because of the swales necessary for conveying water out of the backyards, nearly the
entire backyard of lots 6 and 9 will need to be under a drainage and utility easement. This will
preclude almost any landscaping as that would have a strong likelihood of creating impoundment
conditions on the upstream properties. If these lots were made into full basement units it is
possible that less water would be directed south, that greater treatment could be achieved and the
likely drainage issues could be avoided.

Outlot Drainage
The proposed biolfiltration feature has a 100-year high water elevation of 1008.11. It appears
that this will bounce into lot 12. Given the nature of this facility, frozen conditions and sediment
deposition will decrease the available pore space and can result in increased flood elevations. No
emergency overflow has been provided and the plan view does not show the vertical or
horizontal placement of the underdrain.
The applicant will need to create an overflow between the northern wetland and the southeastern
wetland. This must be stabilized and a vegetation restoration plan must be developed. The plans
shall indicate that no wetland impacts, including but not limited to the placement of soils and the
operation of equipment within the wetland can occur.
In addition to the above discussion the following observations were also made pertaining to the
grading and drainage plan:
Lots 3, 4 and 5 on the southern half of the property show little level back yard area. This may be
problematic for future owners of these lots as there is often an expectation to have a level
backyard area for recreational use.
The grading plan shall be revised to show a spot elevation at the centerline of the driveway
where it meets Anthem Place.
Draintile is required for all lots where stormwater runoff will flow from the back to the front of
the property. Draintile shall be shown on the plans for Lots 7 and 8. All draintile that crosses lot
lines shall be owned and maintained by the HOA. Velocity dissipation shall be added to the
plans for the draintile outlet on Lot 10.
The erosion control plan shall be revised prior to construction, to require steel posts for all silt
fence.
Based on the building pads shown, the hardcover area generating stormwater runoff on Lots 1-4
and 6-10 exceed the 25%maximum without taking the driveways into account. Many greatly
exceed 25% and go as high as 37%hardcover. The applicant shall include a chart with the
maximum hardcover allowed on each lot.
The lots shall be graded to drain away from proposed building locations. Spot elevations shall
be shown on the plans to verify that water will drain away from buildings at the following
locations: Lot 6 backyard, Lot 7 backyard, the east side of Lot 1,the highpoint of the side yard of
Lot 10.
The southern basin shows an Emergency Overflow (EOF) onto Lake Lucy Road, a collector
roadway.

To minimize additional stormwater runoff created by long driveways required for the "flag"or
"neck"lot variance, the applicant's plans show proposed 10-foot driveways for the length of the
"neck".
The applicant shall identify the discharge point of the culvert shown on the existing topography
near the existing driveway of 1600 Lake Lucy Road. If it is a driveway culvert,the applicant
shall have it removed or bulkhead and abandoned.
Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control
The proposed development will exceed one (1) acre of disturbance and will, therefore,be subject
to the General Permit Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with Construction
Activity Under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination/State Disposal System(NPDES
Construction Permit). The applicant has prepared a Surface Water Pollution Prevention Plan
(SWPPP) and submitted it to the city for approval prior to final plat review and approval. The
SWPPP must be updated to include additional required information after the contractor and
subcontractors are selected. No earth disturbing activities may occur until the SWPPP is updated
with all required information. This SWPPP shall be a standalone document consistent with the
NPDES Construction Permit and shall contain all required elements as listed in Parts III and IV
of the permit. The city has a checklist which they will make available to the consulting engineer.
SITE CONSTRAINTS
Wetland Protection
The City of Chanhassen Wetland Inventory and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed Wetland
Inventory both indicate the presence of two wetlands on the subject property. Sambatek reviewed
and delineated the site in October of 2015. Staff reviewed and approved the delineation that
same fall. The notice of decision was mailed on November 17, 2015. The applicant provided
MNRAM and determined the northerly wetland to be manage classification 2 and the easterly
wetland to be manage classification 1 requiring a 20 foot and 25-foot buffer respectively. Both
wetlands require a 30 setback from the buffer for the principal structure. The plans show the
appropriate buffers and setback.
It is the City's practice to have wetlands and buffers placed into outlots to implement the no net
loss goal. The city requires that all runoff is treated prior to discharge into a wetland. Treatment
practices are being proposed for much of the drainage being directed to the wetlands. It is
proposed that lots 8, 9 and 10 as well as the backs of lots 11 and 12 be treated via the wetland
buffer. In those cases, where no other treatment opportunities are available filter strips may be
utilized.
The upland area between the two wetlands will need to be graded to allow for the bounce from
the northern wetland to spill over into the eastern wetland. Work will also be required adjacent
to the wetland area to install the outlet pipe under Yosemite. The SWPPP must address the
potential for wetland impact and how impacts will be avoided. No materials or staging can occur

within the wetland area. Any disturbed area within the buffers must be revegetated with native
vegetation and a vegetation establishment plan must be provided.
Bluff Protection
There are no bluffs on the property.
Shoreland Management
The property lies approximately 225 feet beyond the shoreland overlay district for Lake Lucy.
As such it will not be subject to shoreland requirements for land development.
Floodplain Overlay
This property does not lie with a floodplain.
RETAINING WALLS
The applicant has proposed one new retaining wall as part of this subdivision. The retaining wall
at the corner of Lots 5 and 6 is approximately 125 feet long and 6 feet tall. The sideyard of Lot 5
and the backyard of Lot 6 are below this wall. As this wall crosses lot lines, it shall be owned
and maintained by a Homeowners Association(HOA).
STREETS
The applicant proposes construction of a public street,Anthem Place. Anthem Place is proposed
as an approximately 1580-foot long cul-de-sac, which will be 31 feet wide and constructed using
the Chanhassen Standard Detail typical section. The applicant shall include the horizontal
alignment tabulation for Anthem Place in the plans prior to construction.
Access to the subdivision from Anthem Place is located south of the southeastern wetland. This
location was chosen after examining three locations: off of Lake Lucy Road, Yosemite Avenue
north of the wetland, and Yosemite Avenue south of the wetland. The Lake Lucy Road
intersection alternative was eliminated because of sight-distance concerns around the curve on
Lake Lucy Road and the desire for access control on Lake Lucy Road, a Major Collector
roadway. The Yosemite Avenue access north of the wetland was eliminated due to
environmental concerns from running a roadway between the two wetlands across their EOF
point and future maintenance concerns due to a long road extension that is surround by wetland
instead of servicing properties.
The proposed plan includes a variance to the requirement of 300-foot spacing between local
roads per §18-57 which was approved by the City Council. The access location on Yosemite,
south of the wetland reviewed using engineering discretion and the guidelines set forth in the
2030 Comprehensive, the proposed intersection offset seems reasonable as the proposed 12 lot
subdivision would generate less traffic than a multiple commercial driveway. The applicant's
engineer completed a queuing analysis to confirm that traffic queuing to make a left turn into the
Todd Gerhardt
Anthem on the Park Final Plat—Planning Case 2016-09
August 22, 2016
Page 8
proposed development would not affect the function of the Lake Lucy Road &Yosemite Avenue
intersection.
The developer shall show construction limits for utility work on Yosemite Ave and submit a
staging and restoration plan prior to construction of the work on Yosemite Avenue.
The profile alignment for Anthem Place shall be revised, prior to the start of construction, at
Station 16+00, so that the vertical curve is a minimum of 144 feet in length, or otherwise
adjusted to meet the City Code requirements §18-27(h).
DRIVEWAYS AND TRAILS
Driveways shall be designed to meet all standards in City Code §20-1122. To minimize
additional stormwater runoff created by long driveways required for the"flag"or"neck"lot
variance,the applicant's plan proposes 10-foot driveways for the length of the"neck".
The sidewalk does not continue north of Anthem Place, therefore the pedestrian ramp at the
intersection of Anthem Place and Yosemite Avenue is not required.
The pedestrian ramp on the northwest corner of the intersection of Lake Lucy Road and
Yosemite Avenue shall be replaced per City of Chanhassen Standard Detail Plates.
SANITARY SEWER AND WATERMAIN
Sanitary Sewer
The applicant proposes an 8"PVC sanitary sewer main to be owned and maintained by the City,
due to the elevation of the adjacent sanitary sewer system on the east side of Yosemite Avenue,
sanitary sewer for this subdivision does not meet the minimum depth required without insulation.
The sanitary sewer pipe shall be insulated wherever it is less than 6 feet deep. The sanitary
services may also need insulation. The proposed shallow elevation of the sanitary sewer also
necessitates Lot 1-4, 11, 12 to use a private, in-home grinder system to pump waste to the public
sanitary main which is a gravity flow system. The portion of the grinder pump services that lies
within the right-of-way shall be gravity-flowing.
Per §18-78, the applicant proposes to install sanitary sewer main to the western property
boundary to provide future extension to the adjacent properties: 1650 and 1670 Lake Lucy Road.
It is unlikely they would be able to connect a gravity system to the sanitary main extension and
are expected to require private grinder pump systems. The retaining wall would need to be
removed at the time of connection at the connecting party's expense.
MH#4 shall be moved north to reduce the length of services for Lots 8, 9 and 10.
Todd Gerhardt
Anthem on the Park Final Plat—Planning Case 2016-09
August 22, 2016
Page 9
Water Main
The applicant proposes an 8" C900 water main system. Hydrants are proposed at the end of the
cul-de-sac, the mid-length of Anthem Place, and at the intersection of Anthem Place and
Yosemite Avenue. The plan shall be revised to move the hydrant at the intersection north of
Anthem Place to stub watermain for a future connection to the north.
STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
Article VII, Chapter 19 of City Code describes the required storm water management
development standards. Section 19-141 states that"these development standards shall be
reflected in plans prepared by developers and/or project proposers in the design and layout of site
plans, subdivisions and water management features."
Storm Water Utility Connection Charges
. These fees can be credited up to 50% if the design has a reasonable expectation of achieving
abstraction of the first 1.1 inches of runoff from all proposed hardcover on the site. The wetland
and buffer and upland area put into the outlot will be removed from the assessed property.
This fee will be applied to the new lot of record being created. It is calculated as shown in the
table below.
ASSESSMENTS
Water and sewer partial hook-ups are due at the time of final plat. The partial hook-up fees will
be assessed at the rate in effect at that time. The remaining partial hook-ups fees are due with the
building permit.

EXHIBIT "B"
GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Right to Proceed. Within the plat or land to be platted, the Developer may not
grade or otherwise disturb the earth, remove trees, construct sewer lines, water lines, streets,
utilities, public or private improvements, or any buildings until all the following conditions have
been satisfied: 1) this agreement has been fully executed by both parties and filed with the City
Clerk, 2) the necessary security and fees have been received by the City, 3) the plat has been
recorded with the County Recorder's Office or Registrar of Title's Office of the County where the
plat is located, and 4) the City Engineer has issued a letter that the foregoing conditions have been
satisfied and then the Developer may proceed.
2. Phased Development. If the plat is a phase of a multiphased preliminary plat, the
City may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent phases if the Developer has breached this
Contract and the breach has not been remedied. Development of subsequent phases may not
proceed until Development Contracts for such phases are approved by the City. Park charges and
area charges for sewer and water referred to in this Contract are not being imposed on outlots, if
any, in the plat that are designated in an approved preliminary plat for future subdivision into lots
and blocks. Such charges will be calculated and imposed when the outlots are final platted into lots
and blocks.
3. Preliminary Plat Status. If the plat is a phase of a multi-phased preliminary plat,
the preliminary plat approval for all phases not final platted shall lapse and be void unless final
platted into lots and blocks,not outlots,within two(2)years after preliminary plat approval.
4. Changes in Official Controls. For two (2) years from the date of this Contract, no
amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the current
urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or affect the use, development density, lot size,
lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or federal law or agreed to in
writing by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the
contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law the City may require compliance with any
amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, official controls,platting or dedication requirements
enacted after the date of this Contract.
5. Improvements. The improvements specified in the Special Provisions of this
Contract shall be installed in accordance with City standards, ordinances, and plans and
specifications which have been prepared and signed by a competent registered professional engineer
furnished to the City and approved by the City Engineer. The Developer shall obtain all necessary
permits from the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services and other pertinent agencies before
proceeding with construction. The City will, at the Developer's expense, have one or more
GC-1
construction inspectors and a soil engineer inspect the work on a full or part-time basis. The
Developer shall also provide a qualified inspector to perform site inspections on a daily basis.
Inspector qualifications shall be submitted in writing to the City Engineer. The Developer shall
instruct its project engineer/inspector to respond to questions from the City Inspector(s)and to make
periodic site visits to satisfy that the construction is being performed to an acceptable level of
quality in accordance with the engineer's design. The Developer or his engineer shall schedule a
preconstruction meeting at a mutually agreeable time at the City Council chambers with all parties
concerned,including the City staff,to review the program for the construction work.
6. Iron Monuments. Before the security for the completion of utilities is released, all
monuments must be correctly placed in the ground in accordance with Minn. Stat. § 505.02, Subd.
1. The Developer's surveyor shall submit a written notice to the City certifying that the monuments
have been installed.
7. License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and
contractors a license to enter the plat to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the
City in conjunction with plat development.
8. Site Erosion and Sediment Control. Before the site is rough graded, and before
any utility construction is commenced or building permits are issued, the erosion and sediment
control plan, Plan B, shall be implemented, inspected, and approved by the City. The City may
impose additional erosion and sediment control requirements if they would be beneficial. All areas
disturbed by the excavation and backfilling operations shall be reseeded forthwith after the
completion of the work in that area. Except as otherwise provided in the erosion and sediment
control plan, seed shall be certified seed to provide a temporary ground cover as rapidly as possible.
All seeded areas shall be fertilized,mulched, and disc anchored as necessary for seed retention. The
parties recognize that time is of the essence in controlling erosion and sediment transport. If the
Developer does not comply with the erosion and sediment control plan and schedule of
supplementary instructions received from the City, the City may take such action as it deems
appropriate to control erosion and sediment transport at the Developer's expense. The City will
endeavor to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action,but failure of the City to do so
will not affect the Developer's and City's rights or obligations hereunder. No development will be
allowed and no building permits will be issued unless the plat is in full compliance with the erosion
and sediment control requirements. Erosion and sediment control needs to be maintained until
vegetative cover has been restored, even if construction has been completed and accepted. After the
site has been stabilized to where,in the opinion of the City,there is no longer a need for erosion and
sediment control, the City will authorize the removal of the erosion and sediment control, i.e. hay
bales and silt fence. The Developer shall remove and dispose of the erosion and sediment control
measures.

by the City of the work and construction required by this Contract, the improvements lying within
public easements shall become City property. After completion of the improvements, a
representative of the contractor, and a representative of the Developer's engineer will make a final
inspection of the work with the City Engineer. Before the City accepts the improvements, the City
Engineer shall be satisfied that all work is satisfactorily completed in accordance with the approved
plans and specifications and the Developer and his engineer shall submit a written statement to the
City Engineer certifying that the project has been completed in accordance with the approved plans
and specifications. The appropriate contractor waivers shall also be provided. Final acceptance of
the public improvements shall be by City Council resolution.
11. Claims. In the event that the City receives claims from laborers, materialmen, or
others that work required by this Contract has been performed, the sums due them have not been
paid, and the laborers, materialmen, or others are seeking payment out of the financial guarantees
posted with the City, and if the claims are not resolved at least ninety(90) days before the security

Plan B, the Developer or lot purchaser shall sod the boulevard area and all drainage ways on each
lot utilizing a minimum of six (6)inches of topsoil as a base. Seed or sod shall also be placed on all
disturbed areas of the lot. If these improvements are not in place at the time a certificate of
occupancy is requested, a financial guarantee of$750.00 in the form of cash or letter of credit shall
be provided to the City. These conditions must then be complied with within two (2) months after
the certificate of occupancy issued, except that if the certificate of occupancy is issued between

completion of all conditions. City staff will conduct inspections of incomplete items with a $50.00
inspection fee deducted from the escrow fund for each inspection. After satisfactory inspection, the
financial guarantee shall be returned. If the requirements are not satisfied, the City may use the
GC-3
security to satisfy the requirements. The City may also use the escrowed funds for maintenance of
erosion control pursuant to City Code Section 7-22 or to satisfy any other requirements of this
